Now this title may sound a little harsh, but the premise is true nonetheless lol. We all know that any and every relationship is costly. The cost may not necessarily always be monetary, but you will lose something. As long as what you're receiving in return for your many efforts of time, love, affection, work, or whatever the situation is, is in fact reciprocated justly, then its all good. However, just as the old adage goes, 'Life isn't fair', friendships aren't always balanced either. So take a good gander at your surroundings. Is the company you keep worth it? Are they worth the fun loving stress and endearing gifts that you have to spend on special occasions? Perhaps the mini venting sessions that clue you in on the chaotic episodes of their lives keep the acquaintance afloat. How about the fights that stem from nothing that turn tumultuous and have you wondering how you became friends with this soul-less individual in the first place? Not sure? The ebb and tide, ups and downs of any and all relationships must be weathered if you truly want to involve yourself and have your own life accepted by others (or at the very least allow you to make a true unbiased or jaded opinion on the questions mentioned previously lol). The risk of ultimate loneliness is sometimes worth the pain and anxiety. You just might wind up with a friendship or bond that is timeless, priceless,...unbreakable. But when it turns into a one way street of solitary confinement and unrequited, conditional love..how do you break free? Do you stick it out, hoping things will change or that you can change the person? Or do you cut your loses at the first sign of disagreement?
